Vijay Lalwani and Hector Jerome Bondoc

The Empire State Building was the location of Vijay and Hector's first date.

They planned to renew their vows there in the presence of their dog, Koki, who is known by his Instagram page "@KokiStateofMind." Koki has more than 24,000 followers and takes photos in front of the Empire State Building each night.

Jennifer Nodonly and Warren Sanders

Jennifer and Warren of Baltimore became engaged after the tragic death of Jennifer's father.

The couple was chosen to be a part of the Empire State Building's weddings last year, but could not travel with their newborn.

Now, the couple brought their daughter to New York City for the first time to celebrate their wedding.
